Anyone else sick of the gift guides that go on and on? Normally I feel the same way about gift guides as I do about shopping in a department store…completely overwhelmed. So this year, instead of just complaining endlessly about the excessive gift guides, I’m going to make a couple of my own. But they are going to be little different.

For the next 5 days, I will be releasing one gift guide per day. Each one is going to have a specific theme and going to feature five items that I am currently obsessed with or that are on my wishlist. This way, you won’t be overwhelmed and everything will either be something I already love or have researched.

We are going to start with skincare because everyone has it and I’m super picky. All of these are products that I use regularly and none of them irritate my extremely sensitive dry skin. Most of them also last a very long time so don’t let the price tag scare you on things.

1. Megababe Rosy Pits deodorant… I just started using this product this fall after I started following the Megababe founder, Katie Sturino, on instagram. First of all, if you don’t follow Katie, go follow her right now. She will give you all the body positive, self-love, confidence vibes you could ever need. Second, buy her deodorant because who doesn’t want their pits to smell like roses?

2. Sea Minerals Champagne Charcoal Body Scrub… Normally I’m not one to do a body scrub. But, this champagne charcoal scrub was in my first fabfitfun box and after using it for 9 months, I’m obsessed. Don’t let the black color scare you and give these to a woman in your life who loves to relax and have super soft skin.

3. L’Occitane Lavender Hand Cream… Guys I really can’t stress how amazing this hand lotion is. It is actually the best, it lasts forever, and it smells so good! Such an easy but awesome gift.

4, Versed Cleansing Balm… I have been trying to decrease my single use product consumption and this stuff is the perfect substitute for make-up wipes. It doesn’t irritate sensitive, easily gets off all of my water proof makeup, and is from an amazing, clean company. An amazing stocking stuffer or secret Santa with your girlfriends gift.

5. Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask…last but not least is this lip mask. It is basically like really thick chapstick you wear at night. With all of the lipstick I wear, I normally have really chapped lips. I have been wearing this every night for a year and it has been a lifesaver! Perfect for friends who wear lipstick or who don’t…everyone hates chapped lips.
